Silent Night by Mary Higgins Clark

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Catherine Dornan took her two sons, ten-year-old Michael, and seven-year-old Brian, to see Rockefeller Center late in the afternoon on Christmas Eve, hoping to distract them from worrying about their father who had surgery. One minute, Brian was next to her, and the next minute he was gone. Brian had seen a young woman pick up his mother's wallet. He needed to get it back because he wanted to give the St. Christopher Medal it contained to his father, knowing it would make him well. Little did Brian know he was embarking on a dangerous journey, and how many lives would be touched in the effort to reunite the family.

This is a great holiday story which I have reread many times. It has become a Christmas tradition for me, and it is one of my favorite books by Mary Higgins Clark.
